Teva Mens M Hurricane XLT2 Cross Strap Sport Sandal

I've worn teva sandals for 30 years. I can't say enough good things about them. Except, I bought these sandals awhile back. I loved them. I loved the way you could tighten them up snugly on your feet. That was the best thing about them but it's also their downfall. After wearing them every day from spring to fall the buckle failed. It stopped holding, it lost its grab. I'd tighten them, the strap would loosen and they would hang on my feet. I had to stop wearing them even though there were a lot of miles left in them. If you're only wearing them occasionally they're probably fine but if you're going to wear them a lot the buckle will eventually be a problem.

These are simply great. I wore them for an extended period of time the first time that I used them and there was no breaking in necessary. No blisters or discomfort of any kind. I have a recurring problem with plantar fasciitis and these sandals were great for my heels. I'd give them more than 5 stars if that was possible. Highly recommended.

I bought these to replace an ancient pair of Landsend sandals that finally gave up on me. One year in and I’m still shocked by the value on these Tevas. They have taken some serious abuse on the trail, as well as the pavement, and still look nearly brand new. My only issue (if you can call it that) is that the softer rubber footbed and neoprene strap guards lend themselves to holding some foot funk. I just washed mine in the machine on delicate this week for the first time since I bought them and it seems to have done the trick for now. They have good arch support for the type of sandal they are, and lend plenty of width for my flat pronated feet. They stay secure; however, they do fit me snug almost fully extended. So I’d say size up as opposed to down if you usually wear half sizes or have wider feet like me. They grip in the water and on rocks similar to the Keens I’ve had, as much as I would expect from the type of rubber outsole they are built with. For what it’s worth I think you’d be hard pressed to find another pair close to these in comfort and value.

My wife makes fun of my Jesus sandals but I love them. They’re comfortable and easy to put on.I will say that if you walk a lot (say 12,000 steps) you will need to tighten the straps from time to time. But otherwise a solid construction, nice color and comfortable all day.

I don't have very narrow feet, unlike some reviewers, but I was still very happy with the fit of these. It probably helps that they run a bit large, so with the size 12 sole a bit too large for my normally size 12 foot, I could cinch the straps down and get a very secure fit. I would like to try a size down, since the extra strap material was a bit unwieldy. I found it's perfectly fine to tuck it behind the heel band or just let it hang though. I had no problems summiting a small mountain with them, and they seemed to hold to my feet even better than the standard hurricanes. If they last as long as the regular hurricanes too, they're absolutely a five star product.

For the 1st week of usage they felt great, however the left sandal had minimum padding length between the strap and my foot so now when I wear them the padding is gone where it shouldn’t be gone and the cord rubs into my foot and creates pain. I’m forced to wear them loosely because of this. It’s the only problem area on the pair.

I ordered these sandals to get ready for a camping trip. I have had them for a month and so far I love them. They fit a little big but I think it is because I got one size larger than I should have. I am still super happy with my buy! I would definitely buy them again but maybe a smaller size.

it looks good and it s comfortable BUTSTRAP and SOLE is DETACHED after 2 months of wearing sandals in the city, i didn't use it in water or mountains just on new york streets and the strap in front plus sole on the opposite side are totally detached
